Currently intel_dp_check_link_status() tries to retrain the link if
Clock recovery or Channel EQ for any of the lanes indicated by
intel_dp->lane_count is not set. However these values cached in intel_dp
structure can be stale if link training has failed for these values
during previous modeset. Or these values can get stale since we have
now re read the DPCD registers or it can be 0 in case of connected boot
case.

This patch validates these values against the common_rates and max lane
count values.

This is absolutely required incase the common_rates or max lane count
are now different due to link fallback.

Hmm. I thought we started to store the common rates somewhere more
permanent, or did I imagine that?

You shouldn't remove the FIXME. It's still totally valid.

That series got stalled waiting for Manasi's stuff to land... which
means it's now conflicting and pending rebase, and still waiting. :(

Hmm, yes but if you want I can work on rebasing it after these two patches
land. That series is really required.

But that check is now incorporated in validating the params. 
So why is separate check required?
Or are you just saying leave the FIXME comment?

Yes, leave the comment. Or better yet, move into
intel_dp_link_params_is_valid() and maybe reword a bit to something
like:

"FIXME: we need to synchronize the current link parameters with hardware
readout ..."

to make it it clear that it's actually referring to the current link
params and not something else.

Ok, I will move the comment into the function.
And submit a new revision. Everything else looks good?

I can do the rebasing, I'll just need the review from you. ;)

Yes absolutely, i will review it today. I had looked at this and tested it
earlier as well.

So I submitted v2 for Validate link params patch yesterday, that would have to be rebased?

And how about the Implement link rate fallback patch? Does that need to be rebased?
